Mindanao Journalism Awards 2015

Posted on : February 04, 2016

Greetings! We are presently conducting our project on the Search for the Best Writers from the campuses, government offices and corporate/business writers of Northern Mindanao.

It is the first ever organized search for the best writers in various categories dubbed as - the MINDANAO JOURNALISM EXCELLENCE AWARD - by a media entity under the auspices of the Philippine Press Institute.

The contest on various fields of journalism, such as Newswriting, Science Reporting, Feature Writing, Sports Writing, Photojournalism, Business Reporting, and Community Journalism, are participated by non-mainstream media writers coming from private companies, government offices and schools in the region.

Along this line, may we invite your best writers from your university to join the finals of the journalism contest on February 27, 2016, 1:00pm at Centrio Ayala, Cagayan de Oro City. You can send 2 or more contestants in all of the above categories.

Attached is an entry form that you may accomplish and it back to us by email at: mindanaojournalismawards2015@gmail.com.

Thank you!

Very truly yours,
